I enjoyed my stay at the property. It was very clean, staff was friendly, parking was easy, but my only complaint is that it’s very hard to miss because there’s no sign or anything that says the name of the establishment.

Short Walk from Surfrider Beach

Stayed here for my surfing trip to Surfrider Beach, about a 20 minute walk but much more affordable than the closer options. A comfortable place to stay with helpful staff. Would stay here again and recommend.
